On the nose, this is one of the few ciders that actually smells like apples. Most ciders tend toward the characteristics of white wine.

This is a very dry drink, to the point that the flavor seems to evaporate moments after touching your tongue, leaving behind a bitter taste. Then a hint of apples return for the aftertaste. Overall, the flavor most closely resembles beer; this is reinforced by the rich amber color and the light carbonation.

This cider would pair well with a turkey-centric Thanksgiving meal. Consider buying a bottle or two for the occasion.
